Huh? You awake, Tommy?
I am not sure what you were saying, Tom, but I gathered you are
of the opinion that it is o.k. to drink booze in the fraternity house.
Now, never mind if the violator is under 21, as we can go "wink-wink" on that. Never mind if the kid gets blotto and tears up the
place. Never mind if the kid, who has recently broken up with his
girl friend...allows the booze to put him over the edge. Or slips off the roof or falls off the window ledge..duh, double-duh.
And finally, perhaps each of you who think differently should talk
to their respective HQs and ask about the pending law suits.
We have a presumably forever dead chapter in MD with a million dollar lien against it.. alcohol took a life here.
We have at least two chapters where the President of T K E is being sued and will possibly do time 'cause of alcohol violations.
There are other suits, every year, against chapters which we manage to get out of...with considerable expense...monies which
could have been used to help YOU build a house or something!
Troops, this is REAL...Do you have to wait to face the man in the black robe to get the picture? Do you want your folks walking in
thru the cans and barf and then try to tell 'em this is brotherhood
There are bars, lodges, places you can drink...to your heart's content (or wallet's) and not bother that brother who is working
hard to make Phi Beta Kappa.
Think it over...I am old, 68, today....but not ready, not quite, for
the home...and I want all chapters to stay alive and to have alums with good memories of nigh on fifty years, like I do.
